Fiendish Devil

Posted on November 13, 2014

During library at school Penny selected the book “Dazzling Disguises and Clever Costumes”. As soon as she got home she found the costume she wanted to make and got to work. She didn’t ask for fabric or materials, instructions or help. Keeping her work secret she only asked me to draw the outline for the flames. She worked all the way up to dinner and returned promptly after dinner. When it was time for bed she emerged from her workroom with completed costume assembled.

Using only paper she replicated the fiendish devil costume. She transformed her blue and white headband into devil horns, colored an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of paper red to create a shirt emblazoned with flames and crinkled paper to create the tail.
